John Cena hosted the Kids’ Choice Awards last year on Nickelodeon, and has decided to return as emcee of the awards show again on March 24. He’s also been cast on the network’s upcoming reboot, Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

John is also behind Nick’s upcoming reality competition series Keep It Spotless as an executive producer, where teams of kids go head-to-head in various paint-filled and physically demanding challenges, with the mandate to stay as clean as possible.

“I love the Kids’ Choice Awards, having been part of many of them before even hosting,” he said to Entertainment Weekly. “The audience and the environment is very similar to a WWE audience, and the show is built for the kids. Not only are the kids in the live audience, but it’s the audience in the home as well. I think it’s the only one of its kind in that format: Nickelodeon goes above and beyond to not only produce a great show that translates well to television, but kids have so much fun.”
